Subject: [PATCH security-next v2 16/26] LSM: Prepare for reorganizing "security=" logic
Date: Thu, 20 Sep 2018 09:23:28 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180920162338.21060-17-keescook@chromium.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20180920162338.21060-1-keescook@chromium.org>

This moves the string handling for "security=" boot parameter into
a stored pointer instead of a string duplicate. This will allow
easier handling of the string when switching logic to use the coming
enable/disable infrastructure.
